Japanese Knotweed Removal Manchester
Japanese knotweed has an incredibly robust plant structure, allowing it to grow in almost any environment. This is largely why the removal of Japanese knotweed is so difficult.
With its ability to tolerate low temperatures, it can rapidly spread through any gaps in structures like bricks or concrete. By choosing a trusted Japanese knotweed removal specialist in Manchester, you can ensure your infestation is removed permanently, and avoid the cost of knotweed damage in future.
Japanese Knotweed Removal Cost in Manchester
There is no one fixed Japanese knotweed removal cost, as this depends on the treatment plan and extent of your infestation.
Our careful and methodical treatment of Japanese knotweed using appropriate chemicals and dosages over time allow for successful control of the Japanese knotweed, as well as prevent it from spreading. We offer a 100% guarantee that our herbicide treatment programmes will prevent any future above ground growth. However, this treatment method does not guarantee that the underground rhizomes will be removed.
Excavation involves digging up the entire root system, and is the only method which allows Japanese knotweed to be removed fully and permanently. It’s important for works to be carried out by experts such as TPK knotweed, to ensure complete removal, as a minute piece of rhizome has the ability to regrow and lead to spreading.

Dealing with Japanese Knotweed in Manchester
Knotweed-free means no stress, no damages, and no repair costs. knotweed can impact your life in several ways. If you’re trying to sell your property, knotweed could affect both your asking price and potential buyers – many banks and lenders are reluctant to lend on properties with knotweed. Removal by a PCA-accredited expert with a 10-year Insurance-Backed Guarantee should satisfy your lender.
Because they are so strong, knotweed shoots can directly damage your property. Save thousands on plumbing repairs and building work. Not forgetting stress. The estimated population of the Greater Manchester Larger Urban Zone (LUZ) is 2.6 million, occupying an area of 1,280 square kilometres. This makes the Greater Manchester LUZ the second most populous within the UK. It also makes the spread of knotweed throughout the area a particular risk. knotweed can grow through walls, driveways, and plumbing, producing 4-metre-high shoots in its growing season.
Manchester’s high population density and the buildup of homes and commercial properties means knotweed can spread more easily – with costly consequences. Seek treatment today for peace of mind and a knotweed-free property.
